Temperatures for today, 44 degrees as opposed to yesterdays of 61 be 30s for between the, Christmas Day cold, blustery, high of 38.

Blinking snow to places like iowa also moving towards st. Louis, chicago looking at snow but the system well move into milder air as we go hour by hour, were looking for rain showers, philadelphia, south jersey delaware beginning late tonight, not a lot of heavy precipitation with the system, but far north and west it will be cold enough just to support some of that snowfall several inches will likely accumulate places look mount pocono, berks county, the Lehigh Valley, maybe a coating to an inch or so and then other than just a few wet snowflakes mixing in i think our chances are limited for a White Christmas philadelphia and also points southeast, look at the temperature, above freezing in many locations, mid to upper 30s, travel for this Christmas Eve, 33 degrees today, mount pocono, were looking at 20s detroit low 30s, cleveland, mid 40s, washington, dc and atlantic city, so what about your Christmas Day . Cold, blustery a high of 38 degrees, feels like temperatures will be in the 20s, and then were talking about feels like temperatures in the teens by the time the birds take on the radars monday. 30s. And watching a snow system friday into next saturday around the coast, that could bring more accumulating. But look at that kickoff, 20s, it will feel like the teens. Thats football weather. Especially when i get to sit inside and watch. I feel like this is a question we resolve but its a question that can hit a nerve apparently with any mom, its a debate over staying at home or working. And one author has ignited controversy with her book being there, she said that moms need to be at home with their kids for at least their first three years. Heres our karen hepp want our kids to create and explore, but too many kids arent getting what they need most, mom at a younger and younger age i was seeing children being diagnosed and medicaid for issues like adhd, and early signs of aggression and behavioral problems. Depression and anxiety amongst those. What i was seeing is that it was related to the absence of mothers on a daily basis in childrens lives. Reporter she thinks moms need to literally be there. She said moms are unique, soothe and buffer stress and help kids regulate emotions. In her book, being there, why prioritizing mother hood in the first three years matters, she said a short time of putting kids first can prevent a lifetime of distress its only after that threeyear period that children then internalize a feeling of safety and emotional security, and build resilience to stress. Reporter jessica thinks being home helped her kids i think it does make a difference. At least one parent is home with them most of the time dan cell feels the conflict of putting mothering over career make im able to stay home, which i have mixed feelings about, sometimes i miss work, gave up working to stay home. That was what made sense to our family but i know that doesnt work for everybody. Reporter theres a lot of mom guilt its telling us we need to work but we need to be with our kids. So much happens during the first couple months that you really feel like youre missing out when youre not there. Reporter critics say sacrificing professional aspirations sets women back but not financially realistic. But she said its not about working outside the home or not. Its priorties you can do everything in life. You just cant do it all at the same time. Erica is here. You said it right there. You can do everything in life but we cant do it at the same time. Saturday . Yes. Thats one of the main tenants of the book, that life is long, and if we think of this critical period of Brain Development as being from zero to three and you have this very short amount of time to make such a great influence on your childs development and that casts a long shadow on the rest of their lives. Let me get to some comments. A lot of you have been weighing in. Rose said its quite a privilege and narrow minded to think that mom should stay home for the first three years and not at all a reality for moment i also think dads can fill this role. Its simply the attention of a loving parent or can someone else fill the role . Is this something just privileged women we know many women dont have the ability to support their families. It isnt a book about staying at home, its a book about prioritizing whether you stay home or work. We know that mothers are unique, one of the reasons i a wrote it is that mothers are unique, to talk about a biological standpoint we know mothers are unique, we know mothers and fathers produce something called ox toe sin in their brains tends to make mothers more sensitive, meaning when a child is in distress, it makes the mother lean into the stress to soothe the baby. With fathers tends to make them changes their behavior, tends to make them more playfully stimulating and distracting children away from pain, and encouraging them to explore the world. Which is about separation. So fathers are necessary too but theyre just not exactly interchangeable with memories you talk about working verdicts not working, people in are stayathome moms may not be present, what do mean by that and what can we all do to be more present what i always say and what i say in the book is you can be there physically and not be there emotionally. You cannot be there emotionally. If youre not there physically. So the idea is to be as present as possibly again, whether you work or dont work. Thank you so much for your time, we appreciate it thank you for having me. And let the tweet response begin. Tell us what you think at fox 29 philly.

Looks like mainly some light showers, around the philadelphia area points southeast but north and west cold enough to support the wintery mix, we might end up with a coating or an inch or two sections of berks county, also moving toward outlook but a few inches not out of the question for sections of the poconos mountains. So temperatures in the 40s then upper 30s for Christmas Day then looks like temperatures turn colder upper 20s to low 30s as an arctic blast overtakes the region next week. Bill . Thank you so much. Now, i actually saw this story initially on social media. Its about a local man whos fighting for good healthy this Holiday Season, hes not alone. Hes one of about 160,000 americans waiting for a life saving organ transplant. Joe is a father of two and in need of a kidney after doctors diagnosed him, the disorder causes your body to excrete too much protein in your urine. I saw your story on social media and sat there and watched. So much information there. But share your story. How you kind of got to this point. In 2009, i was being treated by a heart doctor for what we thought was a heart issue, because i was retaining fluid. Like you said, about the protein issue causes your body to retain fluid. And he discovered i have a kidney issue. Sent me to a nephrologist, and discovered i had nephrology syndrome. They told me i wasnt going to get better and i would get into end stage renal failure, in june of 2014, i was in the hospital with pneumonia, and they were not getting the fluid off fast enough and i was essentially drowning in the hospital. They told me that i would have to go on dialysis and ive been on ever since youre an active guy with your students and the community. When you hear about this, impact that it has on the family . Most people dont know because joe looks normal and tries to keep up. The impact on the family really is when he tries toed every day things with joe or aubrey and hes very tired, the hardest thing is when at night, when im putting joey to sleep and hes like, mom, why cant dead read a book to me tonight because hes on dialysis, ill bring the kids in the room when hes doing dialysis, reads read to them and sometimes hell play checkers with joey i watched the video and i was sharing with you during the break ive had Family Member that is have gone through dialysis and i didnt know the extent of it until i watched your video. Youre sitting there for essentially a fivehour initially i was ok with my Family Members that stepped up to be donors. But for various different reasons, health reasons, nobody passed the screenings. Then i was saying well, i guess well wait for jefferso to call us up with a deceased donor, not putting anybody out. Its not as personal, i dont know anybody and i dont have to ask for help by doing it that way. Eventually, my son got older, my son grew up with me on dialysis, seen me doing it at home every day, since day one, and he knows more about it than most kids in college. He can pronounce all the words and everything. One day he said to me, dad, when are you going to be done dialysis . I said ill be done in a few hours, joe. He said, no, when will you be done dialysis . And it hit home, and there was a local girl named erin francis, whos a friend of our nephew, and i know that she went public with it recently, and her story inspired me to go public to finally ask for help, and what it comes down to is i just needed to swallow my help. Its inspiring because you you need help. But so do hundreds of thousands of people, and when you do this, people figure out how they can help and how they can get involved with you, but with everybody who needs this donation. Correct. Theres, like you said, over 100,000 people out there that need donations. A live donor is what you really want. The kidney lasts long when you receive it from a live donor. It will last twice as long we were told. At jefferson, their first live donors had their kidneys four years, thats the ultimate goal, if people are inspired to help me from hearing my story, theres other people that need the help as well. You could call your local hospital. Not only jefferson, but call your local hospital and say, hey, if you really want to help somebody in my situatin, because theres many people out there that are living life every day and trying to move forward but yet still have to go through this, you can help by being a live donor. I actually did a story not too long ago about a nanny who donated to the child she was taking care of. She said all she had to do was live with a scar, so that this little girl could live. You know, and now, a year or so later, both daughter and nanny are doing well. Thats why were sharing the story. Thank you very much. Thank you very much for coming in. If youre thinking of becoming a donor or to learn more about what you can do to help, log on to organ donor. Gov. And well put it on social media how you can assist with joe. Thank you. Were tracking santass every move using military technology, santa is in new begin knee dropping off gifts. Hell head right towards the delaware or Lehigh Valleys, and there might be snow for Santa Christmas feels like christmas. Do you recall mariah car res performance . Shes getting a shot at redemption after her performance fell apart on last years new years rocking eve show.

Especially north and east and a wind advisory for blustery conditions on Christmas Day as we check out temperatures right now, south eastern pennsylvania, 33 degrees collegeville, 32 freezing coatsville, amler waking up to 32, south jersey, ocean city 34. Voorhees, 35, 35 in cam and glassboro looking at 36, dry and quiet after yesterdays rain, yesterdays high was 61 degrees. But look at the snow off to the west around st. Louis chicago that will rapidly move in north and west with the wintery mix, Winter Weather advisories posted berks county, outlook in north hampton, also carbon and monroe, 7 00 p. M. To 7 00 a. M. Christmas day, maybe wet snowflakes philadelphia, primarily rainfall simply above freezing north and west. Thats the best chance for the wintery mix, maybe a coating to an inch or so in some spots, the highest elevations. The poconos mountains could see several inch, were looking at mid 30s in philadelphia, 38 on Christmas Day and that sevenday forecast will show temperatures in the upper 20s to low 30s for much of next week and another system friday into saturday. That one could bring measurable snowfall to a good part of the area. Back over to you guys. There will be no White Christmas in south philadelphia. Monday night, the eagles annoyancing on twitter they will be wearing their black jerseys versuses the raid ders, a win guarantees home field advantage. That could have been lock up last night didnt happen because the vikings went ahead and handled things but the guys are here to break it down, g cobb, sean bell. Where is your christmas swag i had a hat on here come on be man. Rocking it for both of us. Get in the spirit. You know, get its a good christmas looking its all good. Leave me out here by myself to dry, thanks. My bad. So we were talking last week and talking on game day about the fact we were concerned about nick foles. Then nick foles looked fine. He did the job. Defense didnt. No, defense got to step up. Thats why i want to see them tomorrow night. Theyve got to do something to stop this deacon dunk stuff, the quarterback getting the ball out of his hands to nullify their pass rush. Thats what youll see, thats what the giants were able to, you see eli manning, he was pretty much able to have his way, the corner backs got to play better and the pass rush has to get pressure on who derek carr tomorrow night. So the eagles got to play better than this. It was poor tackling, they got tackled well, giants hadnt done that all season. This is what teams love that are out of it. You see the 49ers beating texas. Being spoilers. This is the raid ders super bowl. This is the biggest game for them all year now that theyre out, to ruin other peoples chances and being a grinch they will take every present we have away if we left them. The raiders are probably the most Disappointing Team in the league to the tampa bay buccaneers. Mar shon lynch, hell run all over you, coopers is still there. Crab tree will punch you in your mouth as you saw exactly so if you dont watch this step, this team can throw up points on you. Better step up i want to see them jump on them early. Thats the way you do it, you come out and just like mike tyson used to be, come out, bam, come out throwing hammers. You get on them, the guys will go, you know what . Were not going to make the playoffs. Theyre motivated. Lets see, what you going to go on vacation . They want to be spoilers but you give them a reason to quit. You smack them in the mouth. If youre in front of the nation, if you let them get off to a good start, you got a problem. They will want to put on a show and say looking fellows, we might not be there this year, but well be there next year, and thats where you give them that motivation, as you said they got a lot of talent. Its christmas, i dont think they will just quit if theyre down early. Because its christmas because its a nationally televised game losing on christmas they havent played well all year. I dont care. I played the best game of my life in front of my family. Our question of the day, our eagles question our twitter poll, after at game, after the game last week, are you, are we still super . Are we better than most . Do we have a shot . Or are you concerned . Those are your four choices better than most i probably would say better than most. The super thing will be, its going to be a fight. Theyre going to have to play well. It will be tight for them to make the super bowl, they got to be on top of their game. Its very important they play very well tomorrow we got to leave it there and gary will do our lip synch challenge. Stay with us, well be right back. G cob will serenade you, the musical stylings. Ladies and gentlemen of mr. Gary cobb. Reporter we have since moved eric were trying to get around, were live at red owl tavern, theyre featuring a chinese popup dinner today and tomorrow, some of the food just came out.
